Elon Musk era on Twitter – Good morning fired top executives
“The bird has been released,” he wrote in a new tweet
It is also a fact with a bullet: Twitter passed into the hands of Elon Musk a few hours ago, after a much-lauded deal, which counted many episodes, reversals and $44 billion dollars to finally seal it.
His intentions to turn the page were made known by the Tesla and SpaceX tycoon when he arrived with a sink at the headquarters saying “digest it!” .
But his first move as the new owner of Twitter was to fire some of the most senior executives on the board. According to various sources, Musk fired CEO Parag Agrawal, CFO Ned Segal , and the company’s top legal counsel, Vijaya Gadde. The firings came literally hours before a deadline set by a Delaware judge to force Musk to close the deal or the case would go to trial.
However, executive compensation will be slim, as revealed, with the former CEO receiving $42 million, Ned Segal receiving $25.4 million and Gadde $12.5 million.
Musk’s statement as soon as Twitter became his
Immediately it was just made official by various foreign media that Elon Musk is the new owner of Twitter, as “Chif Twit” now as he writes and his bio made a post full of meaning writing ” The bird has been released. ”
Sources also say these major executive shakeups were expected and among the first big changes Musk intended to make once he became Twitter’s new owner. Bloomberg sources say that after Agrawal’s dismissal, Elon Musk will assume the role of CEO at the company for the medium term.
Claims and reports that he would lay off almost all of Twitter’s employees – about 75% – were denied by Musk, amid a backlash from employees, in an attempt to calm spirits.
In a tweet by Walter Isaacson, Twitter’s new boss can be seen drinking coffee and chatting with his employees in the headquarters cafeteria.
